Me...ow? (O2A)

[meow]

A young woman of Korean descent had entered the building known as The Action Packed Wrestling Tower of Toronto, Canada. Her long flowing purple hair draped over her shoulders and hanging down to her mid-back. She was catching a few strange glances from those who happened to be in the lobby of the Tower. It might be her choice of clothing she decided to wear today. A sleeveless white hooded sweatshirt covered her torso. Underneath, a black and white striped longsleeve shirt could be seen underneath the sweatshirt. Leather steel studded wristbands could be seen on her arms. Loose fitting black jeans were held up with a steel studded leather belt. Black and red colored sneakers were on her feet as she stood there. A bright safety orange and black colored back pack could be seen on her back. It could be her choice of clothing that attracted the weird looks she was getting. Or maybe it was the pair of purple colored cat ears that were poking up from her hair. The ears were the same color of purple as her hair. Maybe that was attracting attention? She didn't know. She stood there for a brief moment. Her hands holding onto the straps of her back pack. A clueless look on her face as she stared at the name "Action Packed Wrestling" that was plastered across the wall. Her concentration was broken. Blinking her eyes a few times before turning her attention to see....

"Huh...?"

[meow]

"Oh... There's no one there..."

...No one. There was no one there she saw. The young woman lightly slammed her palm into her forehead. Closing her eyes in the process as she began to shake her head. Disappointment. She was disappointed. Ugh.. It's such a pain to have such sensitive hearing.

"I must be going crazy cause either there is a ghost walking around here... Or I must be hearing things..."

Lifting her face out of her palm, she begins to look around the lobby of the Action Packed Wrestling Tower. A smile formed on her face as she saw a desk with a person behind it. Maybe they could give her some assistance? She started to head off towards the front desk but before she knew it... Her face met the floor with a hard SMACK! Remember to always tie your shoes tightly before walking anywhere or you might end up with a face full of floor.

"Ow... Pain... Anguish... Hurt... That didn't feel good at all..."

She began to push herself off the floor and when she looked up, she saw the helping hand of...

[Osiris]

Osiris.

Osiris: Now, I may be new here, but I'm going to have to guess that you are as well?

[meow]

"Thanks. I totally didn't realize that my shoes were untied. Curse my forgetfulness."

Back to her feet, Jade turned to the man who had helped her and nodded.

"Yes, I am pretty new. I haven't even been to the office yet to see if they will sign me yet. I guess I just got caught up in the sights that I didn't realize my shoes were untied. Oh... Yeah. I better do that before I go and try to walk again..."

She knelt down and began to make sure her shoes were laced up tightly. As she was tying her shoes, she looked up at the man and said...

"I'm Jade Seung Hun. Who might you be?"

[Osiris]

Osiris: My name is Osiris. Like I said before, I'm pretty new here as well, so there is not a whole lot to say.

[meow]

The shoes were tied tightly and neatly. Jade stood up straight and looked back at Osiris. Smiling sweetly at him.

"Well, it's nice to meet you Osiris. It's good to know that I'm not the only newbie here."

[Osiris]

Osiris: Indeed.

He looks at the ears.

Osiris: I can't help but ask, and I imagine that you are asked this quite often, but what is with the ears?

[meow]

"These?"

Jade points at the cat ears on the top of her head. It's true. It's a question that she has been asked on many occassions. And the reactions she got were simply priceless. Here goes nothing...

"These are my ears. My real ears."

She moved the hair that hung at the sides of her face out of the way to show Osiris. Where normal people's ears would be on the side of their faces, Jade had nothing but flat skin. Proving that her cat ears ontop of her were her real ears.

[Osiris]

Osiris is not surprised by this, having seen many weird things in his life, his own self included. But he is amused by this.

Osiris: Don't worry, I won't call you a freak. After all, I have no pupils.

To prove his point, he gets in close to Jade, to show that his eyes had nothing but red in them.

Osiris: Not to mention my razor teeth.

He smiles, to show each of his teeth had a razor sharp edge to them.

Osiris: Not to mention I'm 7 feet tall, weigh 280 pounds and wear a mask. Trust me, in my world, your normal.

[meow]

No pupils? Razor sharp teeth? Interesting. She wasn't weirded out by Osiris' features. She's seen strange things in her time. She just smiled and nodded her head.

"That's so cool. Not only am I not the only newbie in this place, I'm also not the only abnormal person. That's awesome. Hehe."

She gave Osiris a thumbs up.

"It must be hard for you. I know it's hard for me. Everytime I've shown that these ears are my real ears, I'm always called a "freak" or something along those line. It's not my fault I'm like this. I was born like this, as was my parents, as was their parents, and so on. I used to have a tail to go along with my ears but... "

She placed a hand on her lower back. Painful memories. Her smile faded.

"Kids can be so cruel."

[Osiris]

Osiris puts his hands on her shoulders, looking down at her.

Osiris: I know. But then, they weren't cruel after I was done with them. I'm sorry that you had to go through all that. But no need to worry here. Things will be different. Besides, if you need any help with anything, and I mean anything, don't hesitate to call for me.

[meow]

Jade looked up at Osiris. Her smile returning at the sound of that. She slowly nodded and responded...

"I hope you're right. I know there's more people like us out there in the world, but sometimes it feels like I'm all alone cause of how scarce they are. I'm hoping that I don't have to under go too much rejection here. I hate feeling like an outcast."

[Osiris]

Osiris: Well, you got me in the very least. I was like you, picked on and whatnot, but I evolved into the monster you see before you. But if I didn't have my friends to support me, I don't know where I'd be. Probably out of my mind and more like a true monster then the one I am now. But that is the past, and this is now. I don't like getting myself involved in other's affairs, but if someone is bothering you, I will be there to watch your back. We freaks need to stick together, now don't we?

[meow]

"Yeah. We freaks need to stick together. Heh, heh, heh..."

Jade nodded her head.

"If I need your help, I'll be sure to call on you. That's only if I need it though. Even though I'm small, I've got plenty of strength of my own in me. I might not be able to stand up to the likes of someone as big and as strong as you. But I can take care of myself with people who are more of a match for me. If I got someone I can't handle, I'll be sure to let you loose on them Osiris. Hehe"

She stuck her tongue out at him and laughed.

[Osiris]

Osiris: Ah, you make it sound like I am a pet or something. And I know that small people such as yourself can beat someone as big as me, so don't put yourself down like that. Besides, I know that you can take care of yourself, but it never hurts to have some backup, just in case. It's as the saying goes "Better to have it and not need it, then to need it and not have it."

[meow]

Jade nodded. That logic made sense.

"Yeah. That's true. It'd be better to have the help just incase I needed it instead of needing it and not having it. Hopefully I can make it big here in Action Packed Wrestling. This is going to be my first year. I'll be a rookie. I've never really did this kind of stuff professionally. I've tried it out on the independent circuit and it was a lot of fun. This will be a new experience for me."

[Osiris]

Osiris: I hope you do well here as well. Can't have you leaving so soon, now can we? That wouldn't be any fun.

[meow]

She smiled and nodded her head.

"Yeah. I should go and make that happen now too. Would you mind giving me directions on how to find the people who run this place? I'm going to need to get myself a contract here if you plan on seeing more of me in this place. You know? Hehe. Can't invade the show without having a contract."

[Osiris]

Osiris: You never know, wouldn't be the first time something like that happened. I too am still learning my way around here, but I know where you can get your contract signed.

He gives her the directions, even though he struggled to remember them.

Osiris: Hope it goes well. I can't see how they would not hire you. Fingers crossed.

He looks at his hands, with the claws on the end of each of his glove fingers.

Osiris: Or claws, in my case.

[meow]

"Thanks Osiris. I'll see you around. Hopefully.. Hehe."

Jade smiled at Osiris and gave him a thumbs up with a wink. Then she wandered off to the elevator, following the directions that he had given her to find the offices of Action Packed Wrestling's CEOs.
